UfdbGuard pkgbuild fails - cannot find system rc init.d

Question

Here's the PKGBUILD:
pkgname=ufdbguard
pkgver=1.18
arch=('i686')
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="The best URL database and internet filter"
url="http://www.urlfilterdb.com/"
license=('GPL')
depends=(openssl bzip2)
makedepends=()
conflicts=()
replaces=()
backup=()
install=()
source=(http://www.urlfilterdb.com/download/free/ufdbGuard-latest.tar.gz)
md5sums=('1e097e1aa6b21134cef2bc82f86a8e2a')
build() {
cd $startdir/src/
mv ufdbGuard-$pkgver ufdbguard-$pkgver
cd ufdbguard-$pkgver
./configure --prefix=/usr --with-ufdb-user=jason \
--with-ufdb-config=${pkgdir}/etc/squid \
--with-ufdb-logdir=${pkgdir}/var/log/ufdbguard \
--with-ufdb-dbhome=${pkgdir}/var/blacklists \
--with-ufdb-images_dir=${pkgdir}/usr/share/ufdbguard/images
make || return 1
make prefix=$startdir/pkg/usr install || return 1
So the problem is this message when I try to build it:
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/jason/ufdbguard/src/ufdbguard-1.18/src'
./install_etcfiles.sh /home/jason/ufdbguard/pkg/etc/squid /home/jason/ufdbguard/pkg/usr/bin
pkgname=ufdbguard
=================================================================
Cannot find the system rc init.d directory *******
Please run install_etcfiles.sh manually and specify the directory ********
=================================================================
make[1]: *** [install.etc] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/jason/ufdbguard/src/ufdbguard-1.18/src'
make: *** [install.etc] Error 2
==> ERROR: Build Failed.
Aborting...
I've looked at the install_etcfiles.sh script and the problem appears to be there. I probably need to figure out how to patch that script, but I don't know where to begin.

Answer 1

1. It's very frustrating: --with-ufdb-user=jason
Can you read it out from system variables/command ?
2.
Please run install_etcfiles.sh manually and specify the directory
Please try it, if the help message tells you tihs Of course archlinux hasn't got /etc/init.d/, but /etc/rc.d/, BSD like init scripts.
3. A cleaner PKGBUILD for it:
# Maintainer: You <your email>
pkgname=ufdbguard
pkgver=1.18
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="The best URL database and internet filter"
url="http://www.urlfilterdb.com/"
license=('GPL')
depends=('openssl' 'bzip2')
arch=('i686')
source=(http://www.urlfilterdb.com/download/free/ufdbGuard-latest.tar.gz)
md5sums=('1e097e1aa6b21134cef2bc82f86a8e2a')
build() {
cd $srcdir
mv ufdbGuard-$pkgver ufdbguard-$pkgver
cd ufdbguard-$pkgver
./configure --prefix=/usr --with-ufdb-user=jason \
--with-ufdb-config=${pkgdir}/etc/squid \
--with-ufdb-logdir=${pkgdir}/var/log/ufdbguard \
--with-ufdb-dbhome=${pkgdir}/var/blacklists \
--with-ufdb-images_dir=${pkgdir}/usr/share/ufdbguard/images
make || return 1
make prefix=$pkgdir/usr install || return 1
